Below is a link to one of Dick Wallen's videos, this one on sprint car racing up through the 1963 season (it is his volume 1; apparently there is a volume 2). Some of the highlights: - It includes

Check out this listing. A really neat looking custom, Indy roadster looking car. Current bidding when I posted this was $90K. Kinda looks like one of the old Pat Clancy Bardahl roadsters, doesn't it.

Thanks, Jim. Old PJ was something else, just a helluva driver. I can imagine he intimidated a LOT of other drivers. It was just fun to watch him...talk about competitive! Bill Barker Fort Leavenworth,

Bill, The race where Parnelli's pole was disallowed was also at Riverside, but in the 1970 Motor Trend 500 NASCAR race. Parnelli (and seven other Western drivers) qualified on Firestones. NASCAR ruled

Here is last week's edition of "My Ride" by A.J. Baime. It was published in the weekend WSJ the day before the 500. It is an enjoyable narration on Tom Malloy, his collection and his Penske PC9B, the

Hi, While I agree with the general thrust of argument, that comparison is cherry picking, and you could pick any Monaco GP from the past 20 years or more and see something similar. Monaco is an

Great thoughts, and good graphics, Gene. Although, I'd contend that it would be better to compare two road courses without weather and more realistic pit stops. A constricted street course vs. a wide

Thanks, Bill. I grew up in upstate NY and lived about 10 miles from Fonda Speedway in Fonda, NY. Bill Wimble #33 was the Flying Dairy Farmer and my favorite driver. There was also Pete Corey, Lou

The current one-make Indy cars are so old and out-of-date that they are eligible for Historic car racing in the HMSA.? That is why I haven't watched Indy in years. Lee Stohr Port Angeles, WA

While being the most traditional F1 race, Monaco is normally the least exciting due to the constraints of the track. Qualifying was more exciting at Monaco with some surprises, and have Verstappen

Here is an obit on Bob McCreadie that appeared in the N.Y. Times last Thursday. I was only vaguely familiar with McCreadie, but you will note from the obit that he had quite a fan following in New

Fellow Rhers, This year we saw another great 500 at Indy. While we all know that the technology of F1 is the best, that does not mean it's good racing. Here is a graph that tells the difference in

Thank you Don and Tony, Either my incompetence or YouTube TV's quaint programming display/scheme defeats me. At times, the NTT IndyCar series is absent from their menu selection, and though I've
